The bassoon's tears about the dead trees that were not able to grow.

I am an avid classical music fan. My mother played 2nd violin on orchestras in the US, including Battle Creek Symphony, France, and Korea. Being that she was a violinist who could play Cello as well, I'm partial to strings. That said, the Bassoon is easily my favorite Woodwind. I've always loved the sound and how it fits so well into any piece. In the countless concerts I've attended, I always look forward to the Bassoon pieces. You are amazing.

[@UMichiganBassoon]

Thank you so much for your kind message and I'm very happy you enjoyed the performance.

[@thephantomeagle2]

@@UMichiganBassoon what other winds does the bassoonist play?

[@UMichiganBassoon]

I only play bassoon these days. I started on the saxophone as a child but haven't played that in years.

[@edwardhoward5525]

University of Michigan has its priorities in the right place if it has a dedicated Bassoon Studio! Great piece (we normally only get RV 484 and 498) so nice to get this one.

[@rosalinddavies8466]

The bassoon is a beautiful noble instrument

[@amedeoandreini8334]

The BAROK AGE - what a great age! See also the barok churches in so many villages in the South of Italy !!!

[@auregalli4555]

I love baroque music, I love Vivaldi ... what a pleasure listening to this melodious bassoon ... they are all very good

[@Dremvel2335]

Very well played.. everyone is delightfully in tune and the piece is hoppingly majestic... I love the belching bedpost.. It's one of my favorite woodwinds. Most folk don't realize how much fun it can be. How jovial.. such a jolly and wonderful sound.

[@staninjapan07]

I don't play an instrument or even understand more than the most basic of music theory or musical concepts, but there are a couple of instruments (sounds, actually) that I have come to like over the last few years. It may be there is only one... If this is the same family as an oboe, then there is one. If not, there are two. I cannot even describe this sound musically... as in "it's like a trumpet" or such like. I am sure if this were all I listened to for a few weeks, I'd develop a different "new favourite", but as long as I don't over-indulge, I find this somehow magical, transfixing, along with the oboe. Thanks.

A sensitive performance of a gorgeous work.

I never knew what to think about the bassoon until now. Your performance was magical, whimsical even. It is truly an exciting musical instrument.

[@UMichiganBassoon]

Thank you so much Brian! Glad you enjoyed the performance, and I hope you get to view some of the other videos as well.

[@valenteazuela9030]

[@hermanbotha1444]

[@JoseMunoz-hy9sz]

I grew up listening to the bassoon!!, my uncle made a master’s degree from in the university of Michigan in medieval music!!! I appreciate this extremely!!!

[@NorthWestV6]

I remember learning to play this. Damn. Time flies. Been forever since I’ve played 😭

[@auregalli4555]

我喜歡巴洛克音樂，我喜歡Vivaldi ......聽到這首悠揚的巴鬆管真是一種樂趣......它們都非常好

[@alvarovieira50]

Fabuloso!

[@colinetsegers]

There are no words to tell how deep this music moves me. Thank you Vivaldi, and thank you musicians for this nice version probably very near what Vivaldi had in mind and ears at the Ospedale.

[@UMichiganBassoon]

Thank you so much for your kind words and we're glad to know you enjoyed the performance.

[@canardeur8390]

[@colinetsegers]

The comment I left here under was meant for "Vivaldi - Concerto in E minor for Bassoon, RV 484, Uniwersytet Muzyczny Fryderyka Chopina". No idea how it landed here. Although this also a very nice and brilliantly played concerto (RV 495).

[@AnjaHuebel1]

I just listened to that again. It is stellar, isn't it? Soloist, conductor, and orchestra alike!

[@angelicasofiabravo7225]

👍👏😇🙏

[@user-xq2wu4lu2q]

good~

[@ExxylcrothEagle]

nice gel, and a really excellent mix besides the masterful playing

[@elibenicio5408]

Os violinos ficaram escondidos

[@JCMH]

Pretty performance! Have you ever played a baroque bassoon?

[@UMichiganBassoon]

Yes, recently I have. Possible performances on their way!

[@vertimaron]

the name of instrument please?

[@UMichiganBassoon]

The name of the instrument is "bassoon." The brand of this particular bassoon is Heckel.

[@SvetoTheFool]

What wrong with those 15 thumb-downs?

[@ExxylcrothEagle]

I generally don't worry too much about those thumbs down, don't even acknowledge it, but on this vid, i'm just like.....what? I just can't see any technical problems so maybe it's just hater trolls or something...it really can't be some nerds worried about tempo etc

That would be a nice way to retire! Thanks for viewing.

Play it with original Dulcian

[@TurboBinch]

This concerto was not written for dulcian.

[@musikverruckt9698]

Aha.

[@carbugnov1952]

i prefer slower bassoon music

[@gracenc]

Personally, Presto is my favourite movement, but Largo is also beautiful!

[@bobcochran2890]

Bravo!
